Brides for a Cause

They had a big variety and were very friendly helpful without putting on sales pressure. Great experience!

I love this place so much! I found my dream dress. I went to a place before Brides for a Cause, found exactly what I wanted here, and 3/4 of the price, and never worn. The best part of it all is the fact that the $$ goes to wonderful organizations. It was an adorable set up too and everyone was so helpful :)

We had an amazing experience at Brides for a Cause. Amazing selection and the store is so cute. The staff were attentive and helpful. My daughter found her dream dress.

The store had a large selection of plus sized dresses. The staff was friendly, helpful and fully understood my vision. They were so amazing that they helped another bride who was there find the dress she liked in her size at another location. I would highly recommend them!

My daughter had an amazing experience! The shop is beautiful and doesn't feel like a "thrift" or 2nd hand shop at all. Everything is clean and well organized and the area to try on dresses is bright and beautiful. She found the perfect dress and we saved SO much money. Weddings are expensive and this just freed up the budget for some other things we didn't think we could afford! :) Sizes below 8 and above 14 have a smaller selection to choose from only because they can only sell what is donated. But, we found hers outside the "most popular" range and the thing about buying a dress off the rack is that the alterations can be minimal. This saves you a ton as well! In our case, the dress only needs minor alterations to the corset back. The length is perfect and it is already bustled. A 10/10 experience all the way around!

I was absolutely shocked to see such high ratings for this bridal shop! I loved the idea of this shop and was so excited. People were nice when I walked in and I was told I could try on 15 dresses, which seemed really generous. HOWEVER, I left after trying on 4 dresses, as the dresses were stained, ripped, buttons were missing, and looked like they had been purchased at the Goodwill. I was so sad and very disappointed. I would not recommend going here to find your wedding dress.

This organization is such a phenomenal way to make finding a wedding dress really meaningful. I started looking in boutiques around Los Angeles, where I live, and became quickly fed up with the pretentious vibe. If you are looking for a classy yet friendly bridal shop then Brides for a Cause is a great place for you. The prices are very budget friendly and the quality is top-notch. I saw so many designer gowns that I had seen in previous shops but these were a fraction of the price. It was well organized so going through the racks was a breeze. Many of the gowns were unaltered so the length was still perfect for my tall frame. The staff were kind and encouraging but in no way pushy. You can tell they truly have dedicated their time and expertise to making the shop a great success. They are dedicated to the cause and super friendly. I would recommend any bride to go browse their racks before going to the high end stores. And if you are looking for a great way to give back, you can donate your dress to the shop after your event.

The employees were so fantastic!!! I went in with low expectations because I had such a small budget of $300. I was so surprised to find so many options for my price range and absolutely gorgeous dresses!

This was a great experience, after months of wedding dress shopping, I found ‘the dress’ here. The staff were helpful and professional and I knew just what to expect. Keep up the great work!

Everyone who was working was so incredibly nice and helpful. Though I didn’t find what I was looking for today I will tell my friends about this amazing store & what they do for the community! Thanks again for having me in today! :)

Big fan of this salon, their cause, and their prices! It was easy to make an appointment online and I had no issues checking-in when we got there. The only reason I cannot give a full 5 stars is because the shopping experience was a bit hectic. It's hard to visualize what the dress will look like while it's on the rack, and there is no one to assist you besides the basic functions of checking-in/out and answering questions. It would have been impossible to shop here alone, as I needed a second set of hands to hold dresses I was pulling off the racks, zip me up, grab a veil, etc. That being said, I did find my dress here and I love it! They were able to hold the dress for me, while I left to do some soul-searching, and let me try it on again right at closing to make sure that Yes! It's the dress! The women that work there are extremely friendly and helpful, I just wish there was more of them to assist the brides. All-in-all a great experience, just make sure you bring a buddy to help you shop!

Found a beautiful BHLDN dress and spent a quarter of what it would have cost retail. The staff were lovely and I am happy to know purchasing my dress benefits WEAVE.

I visited the mid-town location several times. I ended up purchasing my rehearsal dinner outfit (skirt and top) as well as a dress option for my ceremony both at a fraction of the price that I had budgeted for. On each occasion, the sales associates were friendly and never made me feel like I was being pressured to make a selection. I like that you are expected to pull the items from the rack yourself and feel no pressure to make a choice either way. Ideally, I would have liked to be able to browse a bigger selection of accessories but based on customer service, clothing selection and price, I highly recommend this store for someone who is looking for a more relaxed experience than what is typically found at a traditional bridal boutique

Ever since I heard about Brides for a Cause from a friend, I've been raving about them to all of my friends looking for wedding dresses, formal dresses (range from short, midi, to long), bridal separates (tops, skirts, pants), and accessories (veils, jewelry, hair pieces, shoes, etc.). Not only are we contributing to amazing causes, but also giving clothes a new life. Everything's so reasonable compared to going to retail stores and buying everything new. Scheduling is super easy whereyou can make appointments online. They were even willing to meet virtually to go over the items they had since Sacramento is a far drive from San Francisco. One of my favorite parts about their stores is how inclusive and organized their sizings are. I struggled to find my size 14 in bridal shops, but their store makes it so easy to find what you need. Highly recommend their store to anyone and everyone!

I have been to brides for a cause a few different times and every time I was very impressed. I found so many beautiful dresses and even found the one while I was there! I got my beautiful gown back in November of 2022 for $100!!! I couldn't even believe it, I was so happy and amazed when I left. I would recommend BFAC to not just brides, but literally anybody!

The best decision I made for my dress purchase. The store attendant was so sweet and so helpful through out the whole process. The store is simple but clean and organized. The selection was impressive! My dress was brand new with tags and 1/4 of the price of other wedding boutiques. AND, you're supporting a cause with your purchase!! Win, win! 10/10 would recommend!

I love the mission behind Brides for Cause. The shopping experience was very pleasurable! While I didn't find my dress there, they have a great selection and recommend it to other brides.

Such an amazing experience and cause!

I scheduled an appointment to have a look as i was headed there to drop off a donation (a wedding dress I ordered online that was final sale but didn't work out for me) and surprisingly I ended up finding the perfect lace dress for my beach wedding! I highly recommend visiting the store to see for yourself - they have a surprisingly good selection! The ladies working there were extremely friendly and helpful and the dresses are such amazing value. I felt good buying from a store that I know gives back to the community!

I came to the Sacramento location to search for my dream dress. The staff there was so kind, the atmosphere was so intimate, and the dress selection was unmatched. I’m so happy my dress for my special day came from a charity based dress shop, and I cannot recommend Brides for a Cause enough.

Great selection and prices! So much fun.

I had so much fun shopping for a dress here and found a great fit that I love for about a quarter of the original price. Since it was so cheap, I also picked up a late night party dress for $100 and another formal dress for $50! Great friendly service too!

I didn’t find a dress at this store BUT they had tons of selections if you’re on a budget. The dresses were a mixture of EVERY style from super modern to super fancy!! The girls were great and had such a fun vibe. I had a great experience picking out dresses on my own!

I love that this shop/organization exists. It's amazing that they donate to charities that help women and they sell dresses at a discounted price. A majority of the dresses are samples so you have a chance at getting a brand new dress. You have to keep in mind that the dresses can have flaws in them, but they are not flawed to the point where they are unwearable. I wish at least the samples were put in dress bags, but I can understand how that could slow the shopping process. Also, since we are shopping the racks ourselves, I think the appointments should be at least an hour and a half to give us time to look through the racks and try on. When I first got engaged, I knew this is where I wanted to shop, and I found my dress the first time around! It was a sample and a Lazaro! It is nothing like the dress I saw myself in, but it made me feel so much like a bride. Plus, it was a mix of champagne and blush, which matched my wedding colors perfectly

I ended up finding my wedding dress and veil at Brides for a Cause. I did have to visit them a few times to find the right dress and veil for me, depending on their availability at the time. The price for dresses is better than anywhere and all the staff are very helpful and give suggestions on possible alterations for the dress you want. All dresses are available on the racks at the store, you shop your size, and can try up to 10 dresses on your visit. They have a great selection of wedding dresses (various sizes and good quality), veils, accessories, and bridesmaids dresses. They also have various sales, so try and visit during a sale if you can!

My fiancé and I decided to elope and keep the costs down. After going to several bridal stores, I ended up at brides for a cause. I walked in, was helped and greeted with amazing energy, ended up purchasing and walking out with my dress the same day! Not only is this an affordable way to find a beautiful dress, but you also get the privilege of knowing that your money goes to helping those less fortunate. 10 out of 10 would recommend.

Incredibly kind and knowledgeable staff. It felt very peaceful, and it was nice to not be pressured into buying anything. I love my dress!

Loved the supportive atmosphere, flexibility, and overall mission on this place! They have BEAUTIFUL dresses for amazing prices.

Brides for a cause was a fantastic experience. It was cheaper than the other bridal salon we went to, better selection and dresses, and supported fantastic causes. The staff were friendly, helpful, and kind. I was able to get a gorgeous $2000 wedding dress for $500 that had never been worn by a bride before. I tried on 15 dresses, brought my friends and family, and had a wonderful time trying on dresses with other brides nearby. Absolutely fantastic experience!

very nice customer service , and beautiful dresses with tons to choose from , I saw my favorite designer /wedding planner David Tutera dress and was so excited .. I had a lot of fun , the only thing I’d have to say is I wish there was more time they give to try on dresses . But overall an awesome place to look

I had such an amazing experience at Brides for a Cause. There were so many dresses I loved it was hard to choose. Truly! I love my dress and the price was truly remarkable. Such affordable options for designer dresses. It blew me away. And the ladies were so fun to engage with. I also LOVE that the money goes to a cause. I cant' recommend them enough. PS everyone I show my dress to loves it!

They are super welcoming and are a big help when it comes to questions. the staff is super nice, 1 hour goes by so fast. My dress was super affordable too! 100% recommend!

I found the dress of my dreams here and it was within budget. The staff were friendly and made the dress picking easy. I found the process to be much easier then the typical bridal dress store.

We had a great visit to this location and I found an amazing BHLDN bridesmaids dress for only $50. I was surprised by the selection (I thought I would have much more limited choices) and was thrilled with the outcome.

Amazing experience, great prices for designer dresses in perfect condition, eco friendly, and for a charitable cause! I found my perfect dream dress here on the first try-on! You can book a room online and bring a few guests. The staff do not select styles for you. It's fun to go through the racks and see everything and refreshing not to feel pushed into buying. They were really knowledgable and helpful with suggestions for local tailors and cleaners. Can't recommend them enough!

I am so happy I decided to go here for my dress!!!! I have never tried on Wedding dresses before and the experience here was so great! I wasn't rushed and in fact was even assured that I could take my time! My Daughter was actually the one who picked the dress I ended up buying. I have been dreaming of my fairytale wedding for so long. I had a very specific type of dress in mind. The gem that my daughter pulled off the racks, I'm telling you it was nothing short of a miracle that this dress ended up in my first 5 dresses. My colors are Cinderella Blue and charcoal gray, so as you can imagine I have been dreaming of my Cinderella wedding dress! I literally got a Signature Disney Princess wedding gown!!! Tags still intact and optional straps and extra jewels if needed!!!! Like this dress was meant for me!!! I am for sure NOT a size 14(i could barely fit into some dresses marked as size 16!), but low and behold THIS Disney dress(Size 14!!) fit me perfectly!!!! The cherry on top was the fact that the dress was priced at $300!!!!!! WHAT?!?!? An Alfred Angelo Disney Princess Collection wedding gown!?!??! It was originally priced at $1400!!!! Every bride should Definitely give this shop a visit!!! So worth it!!!! Thank you Brides For a Cause!!!! You literally had my dream wedding dress at an absolute STEAL!!!

So many options for dresses! Prices were great. Staff was helpful and store was clean. Definitely a place I would recommend to other brides. Found my dress for $150.

I have shopped at this location two times now and found a beautiful dress for a great price both times. The staff was so kind and helpful and the dress size and style variation was absolutely amazing.

Once I found BFAC, I knew I wanted to find my dress there. They have a great and continually changing selection of gowns from several designer houses. Lovely, friendly staff and very accessible prices (especially if you attend the annual dress dash; my dress was originally $2400 and I bought for $150 😳) Great way to be a little kinder to the earth and to help others.

My dress is nothing like what I thought I wanted but when I tried it on it felt great and the pockets sealed the deal! More importantly, I could not have loved Brides for a Cause more. They had a ton of choices and so many really different styles at a fraction of the retail cost.. I would recommend them to absolutely anyone who is looking for a wedding dress x100! Their staff was so SO helpful and friendly and this big bonus is that all purchases support women-focused charities.
